Kanye West Premiering New Film at Cannes

Witness Cruel Summer, a seven-screen "experience"

Making good on January's epic Twitter rant, Kanye West has announced that his short art film Cruel Summer, "inspired by the G.O.O.D. Music album Cruel Summer" (so, apparently not inspired by the Bananarama song) will premiere at the Cannes Film Festival on May 23 on Palm Beach in the south of France.

The "immersive seven-screen experience" is apparently part short film, part art installation, created by DONDA, the multi-tiered design organization named for West's late mother. It's "unlike anything West has attempted before," according to a press release.

There's no confirmation yet as to whether it's the film project Kanye was said to be researching in the Middle East this February. The installation will remain open to the public for two days after the premiere. Register for free tickets here.

Update: Here's the poster for the film, which apparently co-stars Kid Cudi, Aziz Ansari, and more:
